There are a number of text conventions used throughout this book.

CodeInText: Indicates code words in text, database table names, folder names, filenames, file extensions, pathnames, dummy URLs, user input, and Twitter handles. Here is an example: "On the console search bar, please search for Lambda, and click on it when it appears in the list of auto-suggestions."

A block of code is set as follows:

buildSpeechletResponse = (outputText, shouldEndSession) => {
  return {
    outputSpeech: {
      type: "PlainText",
      text: outputText
    },
    shouldEndSession: shouldEndSession
  }
}

When we wish to draw your attention to a particular part of a code block, the relevant lines or items are set in bold:

generateResponse = (speechletResponse) => {
  return {
    version: "1.0",
    response: speechletResponse
  }
}

Bold: Indicates a new term, an important word, or words that you see onscreen. For example, words in menus or dialog boxes appear in the text like this. Here is an example: "Select System info from the Administration panel."
